I seldom post stuff about myself.
Well this post is an exception as something out of the ordinary happened to me.

That’s right, my car windscreen cracked and shattered. It didn’t happen while the car was parked, but while I was driving!
It took place yesterday. I was driving along Jalan Mahameru (sorry for those who’re unfamiliar), and going with speeds as I normally would. There were 3 lanes and I was driving at the right most (fastest) lane.

All of a sudden, I heard a loud *pop*. It sounded like a large balloon had burst inside a box.
Next thing I knew, I was seeing varied patterns in front of me. It stunned me for a moment, and then I realized I could not see anything but just patterns…

Quickly I turned on the hazard lights, and slowly maneuvered the car to the side lane just by making use of the rear view mirror and barely squinting through the tiny openings on the windscreen. The only thing I could hear was the constant sound of the windscreen cracking, like the sound of ice in a freezer.
Good thing that was all that happened. I thank God for my exceptional driving skills haha!

Most people say it’s because of stones that cracked the glass. Some experts tell me the extreme heat + cold air-conditioning may cause this. I believe it to be the former as my car was parked shaded and the air-conditioning system sucks.

Funny thing is, the exact same thing happened before to a friend of mine and my sister as well.
I called up my sister as she seem to be “experienced”. I told her not to come but she insisted and brought along a few friends. All my sister had to say was “Deja Vu…”
They had a go at smashing my windscreen and seemed to have fun doing it. -__-

Once cleared, I drove slowly all the way to the workshop.
Shocking but cool experience I must say. And damn hell it cost me a few hundred bucks!
